Like Choi Hye Seon, Min Ji is also a student at Ewha Women’s University, majoring in economics.

Many people recognised Lee Gwan Hee the moment his face appeared on the teaser of Single’s Inferno 3. The reason? He is a professional basketball player playing for Changwon LG Sakers.
Standing at a height of 189cm, Gwan Hee is also noted by many for his uncanny resemblance to Beenzino, a Korean rapper.
Occupation: Model

Age: 23
According to Choi Min Woo’s Instagram, he has walked for several fashion shows, hinting at his profession as a model. Considering his tall build and slim physique, it wouldn’t be surprising if he is revealed to be a model.
As of now, Min Woo has yet to capture the attention of the ladies, but hopefully, in the next few episodes, he will be able to prove himself as a strong contender.
Occupation: Cafe owner
Instagram: @seok_lj
Age: 30
As the saying goes: “Don’t judge a book by its cover,” Lee Jin Seok no doubt surprised many when he revealed his occupation as the owner of three cafes in Daegu. Unlike his masculine appearance, Jin Seok is actually a meticulous person, who enjoys making desserts and appreciates the finer things in life.
He also mentioned that he considers working out as a hobby, which pretty much explains his buff physique.
Occupation: Real estate agent

Age: 30
As much as we’d love to share more details about Son Won Ik, Netflix has yet to reveal much about him. However, based on his Instagram, it appears that Won Ik has featured as a model in magazines, suggesting that he might work in the modeling industry.
Interestingly, another Instagram post of his also showed that he passed the exams to become a licensed real estate agent, so there is a chance that he is one.
Occupation: Actor

Age: 30
With hopes of becoming a renowned actor, Yun Ha Bin has participated in several acting projects, including web drama Our D-Day, and movie The Lee A.K.A Bongcheon Tiger. Since we’ve only got to see him for a short while on Single’s Inferno 3 so far, we can’t wait to learn more about his personality and dating style.
Occupation: Coast guard, search and rescue swimmer, and police officer

Age: 33
Fun fact: Park Min Kyu was a competitive swimmer in high school. However, he didn’t pursue a career as a sportsman because he later injured his shoulder. Nonetheless, he has still put his passion for swimming to good use as he is working as a coast guard and search and rescue swimmer.
Unlike the previous seasons of Single’s Inferno, Netflix chose to spice things up with a plot twist. While I’m impressed with the new direction that the dating show is taking, I’m not sure how things will unfold in the upcoming episodes.
As we wait in the meantime, recap on your faves from Single’s Inferno 1 here.
